Members of the Hampton Roads Chapter of the American Logistics Association (HRALA) partnered with the Defense Commissary Agency (DeCA) Oceana Commissary on Sept. 18 in support of activities surrounding the 2026 Naval Air Station Oceana Air Show.

HRALA volunteers joined the DeCA Oceana team ahead of the Sept. 19–20 air show, continuing the chapter’s support of the military resale community and military families throughout the Hampton Roads region.

The 2026 NAS Oceana Air Show celebrates the theme “250 Years of America,” recognizing the nation’s history and generations of service members who have answered the call to serve.

The annual event brings the military and Virginia Beach community together at the Navy’s Master Jet Base. This year’s program includes the U.S. Navy Blue Angels, F/A-18 Rhino Demonstration Team and F-22 Raptor demonstration teams, along with aircraft displays, local food vendors and interactive STEM exhibits.

For more than 70 years, the NAS Oceana Air Show has served as a major community event in Virginia Beach and an opportunity to strengthen connections between service members and the surrounding community.

ALA thanks HRALA members, DeCA Oceana and the volunteers who contributed their time in support of the event.
